trump’s kids go to work in the packing houses

in the prison laundry or kitchen.

... thought people should go back to work.

That's pretty remarkable really. What they are upset with is that low income people got the extra $600 a week in unemployment that the Dems fought so hard for. The powers organizing this cannot handle the fact that some poor people might get ahead in this.

to starve the country for decades. Now with CIVID 19
somehow the government can come up with trillions to bail out business. They have been hammering on SS about it going broke while it has a 1 1/2 trillion dollar trust fund. The PBGC has far more obligations than assets and
people with multi employer pensions are losing their pensions or they are being cut. But the government can't come up with the money they promised
when they created the program. It's the government's fault the PBGC is broke in the first place. They don't force companies to fund their pensions so eventually the PBGC has to take them over.
I have a defined benefit plan myself. The administrator of the plan sends a report every year. I have been retired for ten years and every year the percentage of obligations to assets have dropped. Once the percentage drops so far the PBGC has to take over the plan and the company will walk free and we pay the price.

....spend, spend, spend when they are in power INCREASING THE NATIONAL DEBT. Then they scream, scream, scream about the DEBT when Democrats are in power.

Watch this YouTube to understand this republican long ongoing strategy.

expenses before they are allowed to do any stock buybacks or anything else that empties their till.
Just as we wee folk are expected to put away several months’ earnings for a rainy day, companies who are operating in the public trust should have these social obligations.

and spot on!

you question the value of what you produce for the company and realize you're being paid a fraction of what you're worth or they wouldn't employ you. And you have to do what they say. So you resolve, in true American fashion, to strike out on your own at the first available chance. The system has run on cheap, dumb labor who had no other choice. Now with internet, widely available information, cheap capital, one can work for oneself with a bit of ingenuity.

Though I might add, taxpayers didn't put up a dime. The Fed created the money with the click of a mouse. Money is no longer tied to anything.

The death of neo-liberalism

once called "The Great Society"

We can only hope.

They cannot stand it that poor people are getting a reasonable amount to live on. The fact that unemployment right now for millions pays more than their jobs did is an absolute damning indictment of how much of a low wage economy we have right now.

We have the richest country in human history and millions of workers can't even have a modicum of security in their lives because the rich have taken it all.

$15 minimum wage is a start, but it absolutely should be $20 right now or more and should be pegged to CPI. This country can more than afford that if people are allowed to share in the wealth their labor created.

It's unbelievable that the cutoff for a stimulus is $75,000 and 80% of Americans qualify. It's all at the top.

It should be close, the wealth in this country is unrivaled. If we simply had a system that allowed people to keep most of the wealth that their labor created, the American dream would be alive and well for everyone.

it was called UNIONS! But people can be suckered and manipulated. Both my sons work in union shops and half the men they work with went for Trump. Go figure..

Very few in the American working class gets anything without fighting for it..

Unsurprisingly, li'l Linz didn't think this through.
You dummy, Graham. CV just could make it over your dead body!

Without workers there can be NO profits. Ever.

Trumpers think even Mnuchin's $120 per week "subsistence" is an outrage.

This is how they have been programmed.

They love it when the rich or big business get millions for free. It's only regular people they think should have to pull themselves up by their bootstraps.

Worship the rich as the giving tree for the rest of the herd, in keeping with the trickle down LIE. And believe that you too got a tax break along with the rich guys, even though you still don't actually have any more disposable income than you did before. (I have yet to meet a Trumper who will admit he didn't get anything from the tax scam. They either "think" or "feel" that they are "better off".)

And they love to stir up trouble among the “lower class”, getting them to fight among themselves.

to expand the social safety net and reform the tax code. Transformational change is coming if we have the courage to see it through.

And I hope nothing goes back to business as it was. I hope the 1% and the republicans are seen as the pig parasites they are and the people decide they are worth more and they embrace dignity and would not tolerate working with no fruits of thier labor. The man on the box needs to be thrown away
(Derrick Jensen's Parable of the Box Google it)

Tax the wealthy and the corporations to pay for it and give everyone a universal basic income.

People at the bottom will have more money to spend and wealth will trickle up to the top, like it should.

The best thing we can do for business and our economy is to make sure we’re all able to purchase the very goods we produce.
